Lobby has maintained the mid-century look of logs and stone. Day staff was very friendly and professional. Every part of the room was spotless. Room was quiet and faced the pool. Five minute drive to the casino. Small shopping center across the road with a breakfast place, Chinese restaurant and native bookstore (Talking Leaves). Would definitely stay there again.
